Rare revised and enlarged second English edition of Herbert's account of his voyage (1627-29) to Persia by way of the Cape, Madagascar and Surat ... Show moreRare revised and enlarged second English edition of Herbert's account of his voyage (1627-29) to Persia by way of the Cape, Madagascar and Surat (India). On his way back he visited North America. Herbert begins his account of America (pp. 355-364) with its supposed discovery in 1170 by Madoc, son of Owen Gwyneth, Prince of Wales, and attempts to defend this claim with linguistic and cultural evidence. ''The quaint and curious notes on the travels make the volume one of the most interesting and attractive of the earlier and more primitive accounts'' (South African Bibliography). The illustrations include maps of Madagascar and the southeastern coast of Africa, the Persian empire, India, and Southeast Asia, views of the Persian Gulf, Tenerife, St. Helena, natives of Angola, the Cape, Persia and depictions of a coconut tree, a shark fish, a penguin and a dodo. - Thomas Herbert (1606-82) travelled with Dodmore Cotton, the new English ambassador to Persia (who died before Herbert's return). He first published his account in English in 1634, and it was translated into Dutch (by Lambert van den Bos) in 1658 and into French in 1663. Jonathan Swift attacked its "impertinences, conceitedness, and tedious digressions" and called the author a coxcomb (South African Bibliography). - Some marginal waterstains and soiling. A good copy of this account which is still important for its early eyewitness descriptions, especially of Persia, India and Africa. Headpieces; initials. Author attributes first dicovery of America to Madoc ap Owen Gwynedd, 300 years before Columbus. Main Heritage Shelves General DS7 .H47 1638 Book Item-ID: i2266774x BIB-ID: 1508228 Book plate of T.
